Hi! I am an incoming Ph.D. student in developmental psychology at Duke, working with Drs. Dorsa Amir and Tamar Kushnir. My current research explores children's creativity across the lifespan, cases where young children exploit, how directive adults undermine children's effort after instructions go away, and the multiple zones of proximal development that support children's learning. Prior to graduate school, I worked with Dr. Michael Tomasello, with whom I investigated children's cooperative decision-making and social learning.
